    Obstacle avoidance side sensors not turning off in sport mode

    I'll try doing what you suggest as well as altering the control variables on the controller and not connecting the goggles.

    Obstacle avoidance side sensors not turning off in sport mode

    I tried flying recently and still found the same situation exists. I will try black taping the side sensors to see if that works. And also try without the goggles connected.

    Obstacle avoidance side sensors not turning off in sport mode

    I am making videos with my Mavic 2 pro and even in sport mode, where all sensors are suppose to be off, the drone will come to a stop and set off audio alarms when I fly between objects such as boulders or rock pinnacles. The drone will then move forward very slowly until it is past the squeeze...

    Well, it finally happened - crashed the mavic pro

    I lost my Mavic Pro and tried to replace it with only a Mavic Air 2 and had to send it back as I found the Mavic Air 2 uses different batteries than the Mavic Pro and the Mavic Air 2 could not be linked with my DJI Goggles. It would have been most economical for me to have replaced my lost...

    2 lost Mavic pros

    I should have stated the RTH for the original Mavic Pro. My new Mavic 2 seems to be doing a RTH along it's flight path because after I loose signal and it's reestablished there is a completely different view in the goggles.

    2 lost Mavic pros

    I was flying an original Mavic Pro. Not a Mavic 2 Pro. I now have a Mavic 2 Pro.

    2 lost Mavic pros

    I don't think you read my posting correctly: think it would be really great if DJI would design their drones to RTH along a REVERSE of the their flight path rather than a DIRECT flight path back to the home point where it can run into an obstacle and self land as mine did.

    2 lost Mavic pros

    About a month ago I lost a Mavic Pro when I was using it to video a ravine in Arizona. I lost signal to the controller and also visual to the Mavic Goggles I was using. I had the lost signal situation set to have the drone go to hover. When the battery got to 25% the drone started RTH. Since...
